Today, Danny and I went to see Clint Eastwoods' movie, "Gran Torino" and let me tell you what - it was a great movie. Now, I'm a fan of Clint Eastwood, acting and directing (except the "Every Which Way But Loose" series)
I expected a good movie, and I got one.
Clint Eastwood plays a widower, alienated from his children and grandchildren because of a generation gap. He lives in a neighborhood that most of his friends have moved away from, or they have passed on. Many from Hmong community are moving into the neighborhood. In an event, Clint earns the gratitude of many of his new neighbors. The movie displays how people stay the same, while the world around them changes. Clint makes a change in the film and in it, he finds redemption and healing.
I'm afraid I'll spoil it for you if I tell you too much, but go see it. It was so good, I may have to go and see it again. The great thing about this film is you have one idea of what will happen, and something completely different does happen.
It really made me evaluate how I look at the world.
Enjoy!!!
